Chapter 3 in The Poetic Organization, 2014, pp 42-62 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The previous chapter explored the organizational literature that touches on elements of poetics in its many forms. Such a review was critical in that it established a position that ultimately encompasses a ‘fictive’ stance in the research. The focus of Chapter 3 is on methodological issues and the approaches taken in the research process in terms of examining the fictive element. In order to outline the rationale for the method, there is an extensive section on the philosophical placement of these methodological ideas in theories around the fictive process and how this relates to ontological matters in organization studies.
